Alright for Miss Audra sight-reading! *Music school is useful, kids!* I really need to dig out my CDs of this concert. It's been a while too long since I've been inside the show.
Why am I watching this for the third time? And still crying all the way through it? I love watching Seth conduct the orchestra at the end; he is just so good at it!
How am I just finding this in 2020? Thank you Seth for this! You are a treasure! The OBC is legendary, hands down but you put together a stellar cast. Thank you. It is a joy to see this now. Getting to see Ms. Headley shine in a way that only she can is always heaven for me.
This is the first time I've seen this....and I smiled so hard. Thank you, again, Seth, for asking me to be a part of this magical experience, and for letting me sing with the incredible Paul Castree and Shoshana Bean on "Cadillac Car"....such fun. All of it. Even the part where you still can't remember my name......and, in all fairness, there have been a few versions. Pick whichever one you want. I'll come however you call me. xo
Ikr.....uuuurg😫☺️🍾 anyways....... Does everyone with the surname "Lewis" can sing? Always wonder🤔........ We have Jennifer Lewis, we have Norm Lewis and we have Leona Lewis....... All Lewis and can sing as well🤷🏿♂️.... Me being silly😅😅😅
THANK YOU!!!! I cannot believe I am just seeing this after 4 years?! I LOVE Dreamgirls, and just watching preproduction and the glorious process of making the magic happen. No words! TY again! 💋
Wow Billy Porter's voice is just crazy. He's excellent what a STAR. I mean Norm Lewis, I mean Audra McDonald, I mean Heather Headley, I MEAN LILIAS WHITE. This was incredible.
I keep coming back to watch Heather Headley sing "Where is the Champagne?" Complete perfection. Side note: Headley and Audra McDonald were original cast members in Ragtime: The Musical.
its almost fall 2023 and im just watching this in awe. Thank you Seth for not only putting this together but editing the process together. This was truly incredible to witness happening. LEGENDS
How amazing is this!! Seth thanks so much for sharing this with us. How amazing are the main male voices particularly. And Effie and nerelle are amazing! Of course Audrey is just epic(I love seeing her belt! ) what an amazing time you all had! Do these guys get paid for rehearsals? I’ve always wondered how professionals get paid for rehearsals. All that work!!
I also wonder why she wasn’t cast in The Color Purple movie coming out December 25, 2023. Taraji P. Henson as Shug over the Broadway legend Heather Headley??
This cast was LEGENDARY in the most literal sense of the word. How about a 40th Anniversary Concert in 2021 with the same cast??? Book now!
The OBC!

All A++ performances. But Lilias...OMG....what a vocal beast!!!! LOVE HER!
Where has this been all my life? so many heavy hitters in the main roles and the ensemble!
This is one of the purest group of voices to ever take on this piece.
Love this! and aww, look at young Billy Porter!
Why am I watching this for the third time? And still crying all the way through it? I love watching Seth conduct the orchestra at the end; he is just so good at it!
It’s awesome to see the invention of the sustained “You’re Impossible” and its honestly how the song should go now.
